Volunteer at UMACC
The operation of the UMACC is sustained by caring and compassionate community volunteers. Our hope is for neighbors of every background, age, and creed to join in our collaborative community efforts! We have volunteer opportunities on Mondays, Tuesdays, and Thursdays. We are also in need of bilingual volunteers, specifically in Spanish and Arabic. Please note, we only allow minor volunteers between the ages of 13 – 17 to volunteer on Monday mornings, please see below.

DAILY – GARDEN WATERING (SUMMERTIME)
Each day we need someone to water the two UMACC garden plots it the UM Community Garden. This can be done at any time of the day (but watering is best done sometime in the morning). – Note: UMACC’s two garden plots are in the middle of the rows and both have the UMACC signs on them. There is a hose that can be pulled across to water the garden. Gardens do NOT need to be watered if there was any significant rain the day before.
